Lee_IT: Desember updates are installed, and the server is restarted. Actually to get everything running again the server is restarted every morning. Then it works until about 00.00 again, then the same happens.

Jim2000: I tried this, but same issue in the morning. I got one of the employes to log on to the server and check the services. And Microsoft Firewall was off, when he manually started it, everything seemd okay again, so its definetly this service.

Bravo: Im not sure what the lockdown mode is, but since restarting the server og starting the Microsoft Firewall service again works i think its not a lockdown?

Hi Guys,

Any luck resolving the issue ?

I am having the same problem on SBS 2003 running ISA 2004. It shuts off windows firewall service at mid night and next morning it requires manual restart of the service until then it disconnects the server from network , internet etc.

Seems my last post was related. I have managed to reduse IO on the disc and afther this we have not had the service shutting down on the server.

I have moved symantec from the E: partition to another drive, and this has redused IO on the drive, also i have disabled volume shadow copy.

Also installed defraggler and setup automatically defragment every saturday and sunday for the drives on the server..

Prash: Do you have any task go off about the time the issue occures on your server.
also i think i came over some information about the ISA running some task about the time the issue surfaced on our server.

Also the Exchange runs some tasks during midnight.
